My work explores the figuration of femininity through the lens of otherness, mythology, and historical forms of fiction. By depicting mundane acts within uncanny spaces, I enjoy creating renderings of intimacies like comfort, desire, awkwardness or, at times, solitude. I employ mediums such as painting, drawing, and printmaking to build narratives suggesting a form of storytelling that questions how women grapple with the I and the Other; the inside and the outside; the subject and the object. Observational and experimental drawings, writing, digital collages and photography are all a significant part of my process. In the past couple of years the act of drawing has emerged as the central point of research for my artistic practice. I have continued to explore the process of mark-making through various mediums, the most recent being printmaking.
